About - LG LFC20760[SW]
The LFC20760[SW] is part of the refrigerator test program at Consumer Reports. In our lab tests, bottom freezer refrigerator models like the LFC20760[SW] are rated on multiple criteria, such as those listed below. Temperature performance: This combines results of tests measuring the accuracy of initial temperature settings along with how well a model 1) kept optimum temperatures in the refrigerator and freezer at the same time; 2) kept temperatures even throughout each compartment; 3) kept temperatures constant despite changes in room temperatures; and 4) maintained set temperatures even with very high room temperatures. Energy efficiency: This reflects electricity consumption (based on our tests) per cubic foot of measured usable storage space. For example, two refrigerators with the same energy cost per year may have different energy efficiencies -- the unit with more storage space being more efficient. Noise: This was gauged by a sound meter and panelists.

Features & Specs - LG LFC20760[SW]
Claimed capacity (cu. ft.) Claimed capacity is the manufacturer's estimate of the volume, in cubic feet, of interior space. Claimed capacity (cu. ft.)	19.6
Cabinet-depth model Cabinet-depth models usually measure 27 to 28 inches deep, not quite flush with the cabinets, but at least three inches shallower than many standard 36-inch-wide models. You can get models with stainless exteriors or panel kits. Cabinet-depth model	No
French-door style French door models are bottom-freezer refrigerators whose upper compartments have two narrow doors that open similarly to the doors of a side-by-side refrigerator. These narrower doors use less space in front of the refrigerator when opened, and allow access to either or both sides of the full-width fresh-food compartment. Typically more expensive, French-door models are usually 36 inches wide, though some newer models are 33 inches wide. French-door style	Yes
Water dispenser It is normally located in the fresh food compartment. Water dispenser	No
Stainless/SS-look option Stainless steel is stylish but it shows fingerprints. Another option: a vinyl-covered metal finish that gives you a stainless-steel look but resists smudging. Stainless/SS-look option	Yes
Exterior height (in.) Our measurement, including the top hinge and rounded up to the nearest inch. (We measured only tested models, but the similar models we list should have the same dimensions.) Built-in models have the compressor on top, making them about a foot taller than regular refrigerators. They fit flush with cabinets and counters. Exterior height (in.)	69
Exterior width (in.) Our measurement, including all protrusions and rounded up to the nearest inch. (We measured only tested models, but the similar models we list should have the same dimensions.) Exterior width (in.)	30
Exterior depth (in.) Our measurement, rounded up to the nearest inch. We include tubing or other protrusions in the back but exclude the handle. (We measured only tested models, but the similar models we list should have the same dimensions.) Exterior depth (in.)	32

I purchased my first home and was wanting to update the very outdated fridge. My concern, the refrigerator needed to be 30 inches. There's not a plethora of those!

I'm pleased with the French doors which work perfectly for the spot the frig occupies by a pocket door. The shelving provides the appropriate space if you don't install the can dispenser.

This frig is truly close to 19 Cu.Ft. and not more as some may state.

The bottom freezer is a plus and I appreciate having the frozen goods closer to the floor. Less distance to travel if an item is dropped. I don't use the ice-maker and won't comment on it. The drawer slides out smoothly and effortlessly. I appreciate the sound of a good seal.
